Procedure
Chlorpheniramine polistirex was prepared by mixing 3.12 kg of chlorpheniramine maleate with 26.00 kg of ion-exchange resin particles (AMBERLITE IRP69; US Std. Mesh #100-#400) suspended in USP water at about 30° C. The resulting suspension was centrifuged and the product washed with USP water. The wet cake was dried and sieved through a US Std #30 mesh screen. The chlorpheniramine content of the dried product was equivalent to approximately 11% by weight.
